    how does ad-free = privacy when they’re still scraping all your data?

            Dennis is a specifically assaultive character from the fantastic TV series It’s always sunny in Philadelphia; that invented a system of picking up women using an acrostic of his name.

            The TV series is crass but hilarious. Highly recommend watching
